That show was a significant part of many Saturday evenings when I was a teenager, and since. Keillor has some genius to him, but lately (last however many years) much of what he said seemed off. His monologues during the show just got weird, and when he left it, it wasn't too soon. It's much more of a musician's show now, really fun to listen to.

Don't forget Bilmore and Prince.
